Background of CTNNA1

CTNNA1, also known as Catenin alpha-1 or Catenin (cadherin-associated protein), alpha 1, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CTNNA1 gene. It is mapped to 5q31.2. When surface epithelium CTNNA1 was ablated, hair follicle development was blocked and epidermal morphogenesis was dramatically affected, with defects in adherens junction formation, intercellular adhesion, and epithelial polarity. In vitro, CTNNA1 null keratinocytes were poorly contact inhibited and grew rapidly. These differences were not dependent upon intercellular adhesion and were in marked contrast to keratinocytes conditionally null for another essential intercellular adhesion protein, desmoplakin Knockout keratinocytes exhibited sustained activation of the Ras-MAPK cascade due to aberrations in growth factor responses. It is concluded that features of precancerous lesions often attributed to defects in cell cycle regulatory genes can be generated by compromising the function of CTNNA1.

Antibody Validation

Question

Will PB9137 and M01617 react with CTNNA2 and its isoforms?

Verified customer

Asked: 2019-11-20

Answer

Our lab hasn't experimentally validate the Anti-Alpha 1 Catenin/CTNNA1 Antibody Picoband™ (PB9137) and Anti-Catenin Alpha 1 CTNNA1 Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (M01617) cross reactivity with CTNNA2 and its isoforms. Sequence homology with CTNNA2 and its isoforms is low.

Question

We are currently using anti-alpha 1 Catenin/CTNNA1 antibody PB9137 for mouse tissue, and we are content with the Flow Cytometry results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says human, mouse, rat. Is it true that the antibody can work on monkey tissues as well?

Asked: 2013-05-22

Answer

The anti-alpha 1 Catenin/CTNNA1 antibody (PB9137) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with monkey tissues, but there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in monkey you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.
